I would be pleased if my suggestions were reviewed and, if necessary, approved.

May I discreetly point out once again that I have made some suggestions that have not yet been evaluated.

Please take them into consideration.

Gerd Degens wrote on Mon, Mar 24 03:46 PM UTC:

I have a few suggestions in the pipeline. Maybe not particularly original, but who knows? Would anyone like to take a look?

Gerd Degens wrote on Tue, Dec 17, 2024 04:22 PM UTC:

I don't mean to be a nuisance, but my unpublished variants would like to be published - or not, if there are objections. They are:
- Snappy Chess
- Spider Chess and
- Recharged Chess.

I still have three proposals awaiting approval. Can you take a look at them?

The Chess Variant Pages is an amateur, hobbyist website that has been run by volunteers since it was founded in 1995. It focuses on documenting games based on, related to, or similar enough to Chess and on letting you play many of them.
